Overview
LaserDistanceDIN is a DIN rail mount controller and measurement device. Four relays can be used to control any process and two alarming sources of information about a critical value. It uses laser light to measure the distance between the sensor and the object. The measurement is based on the ToF (time of flight) of light from the source (sensor) and is the reflection (object).
The measured distances can be shown in millimeters (mm) or inches (inches) in 18 different languages. Also, the device can be used to write measurement results in CSV files. Configuration of a device is made with LaserDistance software.
Hardware installation
The LaserDistanceDIN has to be mounted on a DIN rail. It uses 6 module spaces. Powering off the device can be done with 220VAC or 110VAC. The sensor is connected with a 1-meter-long flat cable to the device.
The sensor has two mounting holes, 20mm distance. By the mounting of the sensor, note that it needs to have a clear view of the measured object. Don't install the device in a humid environment, water tanks, etc. Also, the device must be used indoors and is not made for outdoor usage. Presents of high dust can affect the measurement. The possibility to reflect laser light can affect the measuring range.
